just me being pessimistc and building off my experience with Germans in general

OpenSUSE is a German company which makes the probability of them supporting Israel very high.

It’s the dilemma of any alternative space. People seeking alternatives don’t like the mainstream.

And with a bit of generalization, there’s two reasons not to like the mainstream:

1. The mainstream is too oppressive
2. The mainstream is not oppressive enough

I don’t think he had them all to begin with, but he lost the rest of his marbles. To be honest I think if he was a critical thinker and a bit more open-minded, he would have become an anarchist. But sadly he’s a Christian conservative.

Also as I’ve learned more about linux, I realize he’s wrong about most things there too 😂

you are a real linux user don’t let some neckbeard tell you otherwise :P

lmao you joke but half this thread is exactly that opinion

finally, somebody in this thread who doesn’t live in the past.

System package manager is for system binaries. Not for applications.

sounds like a modern approach

IMO flatpaks are the future of installing linux apps. The comment you replied to lives in the past. System package manager should be for system binaries, not for applications.

Atomic distro users: Look what they need to mimic a fraction of our power!

good thing Signal is US-based. I hope it will remain possible to use their service in the EU though…

no, but the client code already guarantees e2ee

I think you’re confusing it, I haven’t heard that at least but it’s possible I missed it! Though signals apps and I believe even server code are open source so this would have been tricky to accomplish.

No. Pavel Durov is a nut and he is not out there saving private communication. Signal is offering the most accessible e2ee messenger right now. Telegram has questionable security on their optional e2ee chats which is also not the default.

But the people trying to save e2ee in europe are activists and politicians. Patrick Breyer has done excellent reporting on the chat control plans of the EU.

Durov is just some dude peddling his mid messenger

They do support e2ee in private chats

I don’t care much for the guy, but the fact he gets arrested for the service is a bad sign for private messaging in Europe.

I’ve had most stuff look good with Plasma 6. But not perfect.

I was in LA last summer. Not sure there would be anything left if you removed the cars and roads.

Ah interesting. All my 2FA things work on CalyxOS. But maybe that app is the problem
